MAINTENANCE
NOTE: This pump is designed for minimum maintenance. The motor bearings are self-lubricating. Inspect the pump and components regularly for fuel leaks and make sure the hose and power cord are in good condition. Keep the pump exterior clean to help identify leaks.
IMPORTANT: Do not use this pump for water, chemicals or herbicides. Dispensing any fluid other than those listed in this manual (see BEFORE YOU BEGIN: Fueling Requirements at front of manual) may damage the pump. Use of the pump with unauthorized fluids will void the warranty.
Clean or Replace Check valve / Strainer
1. Turn the pump off and disconnect from power. Using 6mm hex wrench, remove the strainer access cover, O-ring, and check valve/strainer assembly and inspect for damage or clogs (see Figure 11). Clean the strainer with a soft- bristled brush and solvent. If the strainer is very dirty, compressed air may be used. If damaged, replace the check valve/strainer assembly.
2. Clean the strainer access cover and O-ring. Coat the O-ring lightly with grease. Reinstall the check valve/strainer, O-ring and strainer access cover. Ensure the O-ring is properly seated and tighten securely.
